Confidential surveys be damned, this one is so weird that I have to share it.
I have to take Psychology surveys for my Intro to Psychology class. Most have your typical classification questions. This particular has a bunch of those, and they’re really weird. For instance, take a gander at number 5 up there. No, I don’t have a limp due to a skydiving accident…
The survey goes on to ask if I have ever had experience with ESP, astrology or seeing the future. Constantly asks if I think people are talking shit about me (though, in a more professional manner, of course), and even asks this gem: “When you look at a person, or yourself in a mirror, have you ever seen the face change right before your eyes?”
It also likes to ask if you’re odd, eccentric, carry bizarre conversations, have had people comment on your odd nature, if I believe in telepathy, if I’ve ever felt the presence of something that isn’t there and if I believe in invisible beings. And it really likes to ask if I see hidden meanings and messages, specifically for me, in advertisements and commercials. Also, for some reason it asked me this: “There have been a number of occasions when people I know have said to hello to me.” What? No, of course not!
So, I’m not sure if they’re trying to weed-out paranoid people or find them, but this survey is pretty damn amusing.
